Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan review - ChristCenteredGamer

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan is a fun, but flawed game. It's a fun beat 'em up with some performance issues, and local co-op is missing. Thankfully, there is online co-op, so you can play with up to three friends

I think this review might count as breaking the ninth commandment.

The reviewer enjoyed it despite the 30fps framerate

CrimsonWing692859d ago

I feel the 30fps is the least of its problems

Good review.
Also, to anyone wondering why the complaint about 30 frames who don't like to read...

"One major complaint about this game from many is that the developers publicly stated that they were sacrificing local co-op play for 60fps (frames per second), and then delivered on neither 60fps, or local co-op. I would have preferred co-op myself, but 60fps is also regrettably missing. I did have a strange problem a couple of the times I played where I was getting 15fps, but a driver update seems to have resolved the issue. I'm still not sure the source of that problem, but it was beyond irritating. 60fps is badly missed, but, other than when I had the 15fps issue, it has been pretty solid, and still is enjoyable at 30fps."

Play games is a sin. Don't do this.

It's sad this comic book turned tabletop roleplaying game never got a good video game.

Is Platinum Games Losing its Sheen?

After the cancellation of Scalebound, Platinum Games seems doomed to collapse. But can they find retribution on the horizon?

It's what happens when you stretch yourself too thin.

Absolutely agreed even though I really like Platinum Games I always felt they were hit or miss don't get me wrong Bayonetta and Vanquish are amazing titles the same with wonderful 101 but anything other than that has always been very questionable by them and I believe they had a huge consistency problem.

I'm happy that Nier feels like one of those amazing top games by this team, but I also worry because to my understanding that games development was literally split from the team that was creating the specific story and RPG elements to platinumgames Joseph physically creating the gameplay so it definitely makes me wonder if their team is just drawn too thin.

Right now I'm literally questioning how Nier would have turned out if just Platinum Games was simply working on it and none of the staff from Square Enix

Maybe them simply focused on creating 1 aspect of that game is why it was able to turn out so well in terms of how it feels.

Even though it's pretty easy to blame Microsoft in regards to the cancellation of scalebound if you consider they could have simply put in another team to assist them through the development but at the end of the day they still also contracted this team to do something in the first place.

That's basically like getting mad at a team for struggling to build your kitchen yet paying more money to another team to help the other team to build your kitchen.

I mean the way I see it is Microsoft really shouldn't have to do that if they had a very clear and honest deal with Platinum Games for them to create something for them.

I worry about this company's future because of all the bad releases they've had in the past as of right now the last great game I even remember from this team is probably Bayonetta 2.

I think they need to work on less projects and focus on better and more quality products

I wouldn't want to develop for a company that treats me harshly

'Doomed to collapse'.

Haha. Much drama... they expect people to read this s***?

343_Guilty_Spark2638d ago

Depends on who they are working with.

True, Epic Games #EPICFAIL #UE4RETAREDSLOW #EPICCEOLOVESMOBILE. KH0.2 can't even run 1080p60 on PS4PRO.

Since it's not just Spider-man, it may not be a simple case of franchise rights moving to another publisher. Fast and the Furious and TMNT aren't owned by Marvel/ Disney.

Activision may simply be trying to push away from licensed franchise products

gamer78042676d ago (Edited 2676d ago )

also the 2 worst ninja turtles games ever made, the recent nickelodeon games, atleast those had some of the charm of the tv series and old style tmnt games.

Cmv382676d ago

Spider man taking down because of the new one. These taken down because they are utter garbage.

lodossrage2675d ago

Spider-man isn't being taken down because of the new one coming up. It's being taken down because just like TMNT and Fast & Furious, they are no longer willing to pay the digital licenses on most of their franchise products.

And nothing of value was lost
